When creating a new event in an Exchange calender in Thunderbird, I invite a participant. However, no invitation is sent to the participant. Examing the log, I found the following portion which seems to be the communication with the server when creating the event:

My guess is that the following setting close to the top of the log causes the problem:
<m:CreateItem SendMeetingInvitations="SendToNone">
Am I right? Could I somehow change this to make it send invitations?
ABout my system: I am running Thunderbird 7.0.1 on Ubuntu 11.04 (64 bit) with Lightning 1.0b7 and Provider for Microsoft Exchange 0.17. I also use Provider for Google Calendar 0.8 and I don't know if this could be disturbing the MS Exchange provider?
